Hi All, Snapshot Server is a rails app that can host .osm files and serve them out via map calls. The main use for this is to serve Vector Background Layers to clients like Potlatch 2 to help with mapping.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Snapshot_Server The latest release allows one installed version to host multiple projects, which is a huge gain and the single most asked-for feature. In addition, I've given the user interface an overhaul and there's a per-project breakdown of "completion" stats. You can see an example installation, being used for a UK-based cycling project currently in the demo stages, at http://gravitystorm.dev.openstreetmap.org/cnxc-snapshot/ . Code is available on github, and I'm happy to provide support and answer any questions. Thanks go to Cyclestreets for funding further development work last week. https://github.com/gravitystorm/snapshot-server I hope this will encourage more people to think "background layer" rather than "bulk import" next time they have an interesting .osm file to use!
